They're going to have to quit naming moderate candidates like Mondale, Gore, and Kerry, and move a little more left. Hehe!

They nominate candidates from the political left who have a hard time appealing to those in the middle.

That's because that's all they have left in their party--they purged the moderates in '02, remember? I do, and was scratching my head thinking, 'what the hell are they up to?'. Figured we find out in '04. And boy-howdy did we find out.

They sure out-smarted us, didn't they?

Here is an idea: The Dems' could say they have seen the light and now believe it's not really such a good idea as they thought to punch a hole in a baby's head and suck the brains out!

"We have lost just about everything that we can lose."

Not quite. My one, consistent prayer for the Clintons ...

That the Lord would render the Clintons, and ALL their minions, totally powerless and useless and nameless and faceless and voiceless and homeless and penniless, and that He would strip them bare before the world, such is their evil, leaving only their immortal souls, and it is for these souls I pray ...

Al From, head of the centrist Democratic Leadership Council, which helped put Bill Clinton on the path to the White House in 1992, said Democrats "have to do a better job with connecting with those people who go to work every day and play by the rules."
As opposed to Democratic political operatives (aka RATS) who break all the rules.

"New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a Northeastern CENTRIST (my emphasis added) and one of the most polarizing figures in American politics"

if Hillary is a centrist, than what is a liberal. And if she's a centrist, than how can she be so polarizing!

That means they are getting on with the grieving process:


1. Denial
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance

"My advice to the Democrats is never, never nominate anybody from Massachusetts again," said Ross Baker, a political scientist at Rutgers University.

Maybe I am mistaken but wasn't Gore from Tennessee and didn't he lose the south including his home state and Clinton's Arkansas

I might also add


The democrats are prisoners of the Pro Abortion--Gun Grabbin--Homosexual Pushing--Tree Worshipping--Anti Religion --Anti Military-- America is The Cause of All the World Ills --wack jobs that are the basis of the VAST majority of their $$$$$$$$$$$

They say $$$$$ is the mother's milk of politics and the democrats ain't got no other teats to feast on

No way they can shake off that Tar Baby and survive financially

Pelosi put it another way. "Quite frankly, I think the table is set for us in the next election," she said. "We have lost just about everything that we can lose."

Lose face?

Wrong, sister Pelosi, wrong.

In 2006 there are 18 RAT senate seats up for re-election, vs. 15 repub seats.

After that election, it's entirely possible that the Senate will be 60-40. Then you'll see what it's like to lose everything!

Republicans have cut deeply into formerly Democratic areas in rural America, the Sunbelt, and among Hispanics, the nation's fastest-growing minority group. They have made gains on "family values" issues, winning over social conservatives who previously voted Democratic on economic issues, while keeping their advantage on national defense.

No, Dammit! Republicans are the same as they have been for a generation. The Democratic Party has been hijacked by Socialists, trial lawyers, and ACLU militant atheists, and the hijackers themselves will never admit it.

The Democratic Party, in which I was brought up, ceased to exist a generation ago. There IS NO Democratic Party.
